Hi All, good go hear this conversation happening.
Wikipedia Weekly podcast will have at least three and likley four folks there, and we plan to do coverage of the events, and would love to coordinate with you.
There will of course be general audio/video streaming by the AV staff, but we were thinking of providing more "discussion" and roundtables while there. There will also be a Wikimania Lounge which hopes to provide people with a hangout area with workstations and areas for learning how to do various production tasks.
Let's try to coordinate some and share our resources. Thanks.

I will be at it and will be doing my best to cover it. Afaik I am the only one who will be covering it from Wikinews. I e-mailed about a press pass a few months ago for it (told to wait), and again last week but am yet to hear back. -Craig Spurrier

This is probably being discussed somewhere, but it would be nice if a team of Wikinews volunteers covered wikimania, and then, we could use their coverage to send to reporters/interested parties, etc. after the conference. (IE announce if it was a success, show highlights, etc.)
Does anyone know is there is a group of Wikinews individuals who are planning on doing this.
Ie, we can send out email to press list and then post on wikimedia foundation site.
Is anyone interested in this project? Please email me, and I'll set up project page on ComProj Calendar.
